New Risk • Apr 10
New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of German stocks, typically moving 9.7% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility increases the risk of potential losses in the short-term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. It may also indicate the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (9.7% average weekly change). Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 2 years (UK£94m net loss in 2 years). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (2.4% increase in shares outstanding). New Risk • Apr 03
New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 2.4% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 2 years (UK£100m net loss in 2 years). Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (9.1% average weekly change). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (2.4% increase in shares outstanding). Announcement • Mar 15

The proposed takeover could be confirmed as soon as July 26, 2023 afternoon, according to Sky News, which first reported the move.

THG Announces Termination of Discussions with Apollo On 17 April 2023, THG Plc (LSE:THG) announced that it was in receipt of a highly preliminary and non-binding indicative proposal from Apollo Global Management, Inc. (NYSE:APO) (Apollo) on behalf of certain of its affiliated funds, to acquire the entire issued and to be issued share capital of THG (Indicative Proposal).
